Football GAMEDAY THREAD: Penn State Football opens season vs. Purdue

[Sooner Lion]

OL sucks again

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

Big early third down for Penn State here.

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

Penn State forces a punt after Purdue drives a bit down the field.

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

Penn State will start their second drive from their own 5 yard line.

 

[Obliviax]

Got away with an defensive hold

 

[Parkerdam555]

Defense stiffens, poor field position but kept Purdue off the board.

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

Nick Singleton is at running back for Penn State.

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

First impression: Nick Singleton is good.

 

[Obliviax]

86 missed a block on end around

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

86 missed a block on end around

Blocking has always been a weakness for him.

Kid didn’t wanna block last year either

 

[fkkkjm]

Right side of the line still blows.

 

[NCLION]

Have to catch that

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

Think that was a solid second drive overall, Nick Singleton looks good.

 

[PSUQBKeeper]

that dude was riding all over Lambert Smith

 

[psualt]

Definitely trying to establish the run.

 

[Parkerdam555]

Singleton basically single handedly flips the field for the defense. No passing game so far.

 

[Obliviax]

Theo Johnson in street cloths

Must be hurt.

Not yet. But some good runs should set up passing.

 

[Sooner Lion]

Throw the damn ball downfield. We have a 6th year QB and Purdue crowds the box. Take what they give you!

 

[pennstater04]

Singleton looks the part……the rest of the offense looks pretty familiar…not in a good way.

 

[Obliviax]

That’s why he’s on defense

 

[tlbakernc]

We need a pass rush

 

[PSUQBKeeper]

I am already sick of Gus Johnson and Joel Klatt

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

Joey Porter Jr almost with almost a really athletic interception but it ends up in the hands of a Purdue wide receiver. Would've been six for the Nittany Lions.

 

[Parkerdam555]

He led the nation in dropped interceptions last year and picks up right where he left off. Smh.

 

[Obliviax]

Tackle somebody!

 

[Obliviax]

Why aren’t we tackling?

 

[YeOldeCup]

Terrible tackling technique trending tonight.

 

[NCLION]

Zero pass rush

It is what I don’t see from Porter. A first round pick takes that to the house. Porter drops it into the WR’s hands. Brown is a first round pick. Porter. I don’t see it.

 

[PSUQBKeeper]

what a crappy angle

 

[scrivener]

JPJ a continuing question mark.

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

Believe I saw Zane Durant on the field.

 

[PSUQBKeeper]

that Purdue OL is holding like they're Wisconsin or something

 

[NCLION]

Sloppy tackling
no pass rush

 

[psu00]

Terrible tackling technique trending tonight.

It’s been a recurring problem for years.

 

[Sooner Lion]

Hate to say it. This team is staring straight down the barrell of another 6 loss season.

 

[Dylan Callaghan-Croley]

Decent recovery by the defense there after the big play. Going back to the play looked like Jaylen Reed took a weird angle there after a corner blitz.
